Women's Rights Campaign Announced to Block Samuel Alito's Confirmation to the Supreme Court

Freedom Winter ’06

In the spirit of the civil rights movement of 1964, the National Organization for Women, the National Congress of Black Women, and the Feminist Majority Foundation will introduce a coordinated nationwide effort to stop the confirmation of Judge Samuel Alito to the United States Supreme Court. The press conference will outline our joint campaign to engage women, especially college students, in the fight for their future — and to draw national attention to Alito's abysmal record on women's rights.
